The Sage of Einar

With all the materials gathered, Einar looked at his two wives "Today I will teach you how to make a beautiful kite, using wood and paper structure that will fly in the sky using air currents.1

It is a very fun toy and will help children to understand a little about how the wind can be used, not to mention that it could be a nice toy for children.

We could also make them more beautiful and detailed to sell to merchants, I am sure they will be able to sell them among the children of the nobility.

But first, we work on making our first kites, I want you to see what I do so that you can repeat it later. "

After saying those words, Einar reached out his hands and pulled the wooden box containing the materials towards him.

Looking inside he began to take out some long and thin pieces of wood which he arranged on one side of the wooden box.

When Einar gathered enough pieces of wood that he would need, he began to arrange them in a rhombus structure, ensuring that it had a cross-shaped base as its center.

Having all settled, he took the pine glue and began to join all the pieces of wood to form the frame of the kite.

"This is the frame of the kite which will be holding our little friend in the sky to prevent him from being destroyed by the strong winds.

It has to be this shape because it is aerodynamic and will allow air to pass through without applying a lot of resistance.

Now you make your frames, if I see that you have any doubts I will be behind ready to help you. "

After saying this, Kassia and Helmi took pieces of wood similar to the ones Einar had used and began to do the same actions that Einar had done.

While Kassia was working smoothly, Helmi was having a bit of trouble gluing the pieces of wood together, so Einar approached his wife.

Using his hands and leaning his head on Helmi's shoulder, he helped her hold together the two pieces of wood she was having trouble with.

"You must remember to be patient, with wood because it takes a little time to dry.

This can be a good exercise so that you can develop patience before our children are born. In the beginning, it will be difficult because the baby or babies cry at night. "

Giving a little kiss on Helmi's cheek, Einar smiled at his wife "But don't worry I'll take care of the babies most of the time.

Since that way you will not have to stress, because babies do not know hours for them, a need has to be attended to at the moment.

Not to mention that you have to be taking care of them all the time as they are quite delicate.

But with me taking care of them, I will make sure that you can enjoy our children without any problem. "

Helmi who was enjoying Einar's words formed a joy on her face and caressed Einar's rough hands.

"I am happy to know that I have a responsible husband and that he is thinking about the best for me, Kassia, and our children.

That just makes me have to try harder to make these kites. "

Einar laughed and repositioned his head with Helmi's, after which he continued helping her to glue the frame of the kite.

When they finished making the frame of the kites, Einar decided to move on to the next step, so he tied a rope in the middle of the frame in the shape of a cross.

To later take a sheet of paper while placing it on the wooden frame to obtain the measurements, so after this, he began to cut the paper using scissors.

In the end, he took those pieces of paper that he had cut and placed them on the wooden boat while he put a little pine resin on them so that they were glued.

With the kite covered with paper in the middle parts, he only cut a sheet of paper into strips to place them behind the kite, as a kind of tail.

Kassia and Helmi who had seen the whole process also started repeating it, and when they finished, Einar showed them how they had to tie their ropes to control the kite.

When everything was ready, Einar looked at Kassia and Helmi with a mischievous smile and took them by the hand so they could taste his kite.

When they came out to the central square, all the nearby tribesmen, children, and slaves turned to see him as they heard the laughter of Helmi, Kassia, and Einar.

Who seemed to be quite happy carrying in their hands some strange things that seemed to be made of wood.

Einar, when separated his hands from his wives, gave them a big smile and bowed "My beloved women, let me show you how this little thing we did is more than enough to be able to fly.

They must be careful because we have to get some speed before the kite can fly on its own. "

Einar after saying those words held his kite and began to run through the central square as it began to float in the air.

Slowly everyone looked with surprise as that paper thing began to fly higher and higher, even the children looked with joy at that thing that was floating in the sky.

"It's beautiful Einar, I can't believe you did something so small but fantastic."

Said Helmi, who was looking with pride at the kite flying in the sky. For her part, Kassia had a memory of her childhood where her mother taught her how to train a falcon.

"I think our children will enjoy such a beautiful toy, it reminds me of my falcon Apostolos, a beautiful bird with which I spent much of my childhood.

A pity that he died of age. "

Helmi who heard what Kassia had said just looked at her with some curiosity "My father had a pet eagle when he was younger, but since he is a Kassia hawk.

It was bigger than our eagle, or it was more like the birds on the island. "

Kassia stroked Helmi's hair while looking at her fondly "The hawk is a bird that is smaller than the eagle, but larger than conventional birds.

I remember that my father taught me how to train her to be able to hunt some small animals like rabbits or some rodents ... "

Kassia interrupted their talk when Einar approached them "Ladies, which one of you will be the next person to put your kite in the air."

Helmi to return the favor to Kassia, took her by the waist and stepped back, leaving her in front of Einar.

"I think it's time for her to taste the kite first as she didn't need any help to do it."

Einar just shook his head lovingly and took Kassia's hand "Come on Kassia, we have to run a bit.

Do not worry as I will take care of preventing you from hurting yourself, although for our fortune there is still a bit of snow so a fall would not be painful for me.

Now just hug me around the waist and start jogging with me, while you hold your kite with your left hand, when I tell you, just let it go so that it begins to gain height.

Remember to hold the rope support well because it can fly too much and then it would be lost. "

Kassia laughed and holding Einar's waist, she began to walk slowly and then began to increase her speed.

Feeling the air on her face and the warmth of Einar, for a moment she felt that she was going back to her childhood where she only played and had no responsibilities.

"Now Kassia let's go of the kite."

Hearing those words, Kassia let go of the kite and began to smile as she watched as it began to float before it began to rise into the sky.

At that moment she felt like she was tripping over a small stone, so she closed her eyes and prepared herself for the worst, but when she felt a hand that held her safe.

Kassia felt her fear turn into joy, for she was sure that the man in front of her would accompany her throughout her life.

"That was close. When I felt you let me go, I thought you had gotten a little excited. Thank goodness I'm very cautious man.

But look up to the sky and see your beautiful kite fly, I think that will make you feel better. "

Kassia at that moment turned her head and could see how her beautiful kite was flying in the sky, which seemed to ski in the sky without caring what air there was.

"It's lovely…"

Einar gave Kassia a kiss on the forehead and looked at her with love "You are more beautiful, but now that the kite is flying, you just have to walk to let it move through the air."

Kassia then tapped Einar on the shoulder, before stopping to start walking while carrying her kite in her hand like a little girl.

Laura, who was holding Papa Einar's kite in her hand, also had a smile on her face like Kassia because flying that thing in the air was reassuring and let her imagination run wild.

For she imagined her flying through the sky while the air could caress her face.

"This kite that Papa Einar just created is fantastic. It is fortunate that we were away when he was testing it.

Do you want to hold it for a while too, Daven? "

You know who was quite surprised nodded because he wanted to taste that kite.
